$150 bucks aint ****. I think we can cover that, hell I can cover that.

 

yeah 150 aint bad at all. Lets discuss this in further detail at HH today and take it from there.

 

OK I contacted United Solar Tint, they are interested in coming out and setting up a booth.

 

sweet, now we just need a location. It was 550 for the park Lethal spoke of and 800 for Centeniel. I think the second option is out completely.

 

whats the first

 

Here are Suggestions for Parks that I ask you all to look at and give input before I start narrowing down and calling.

I think we should continue to look. But I think Centennial should be kept as an option. Here's my reasoning:

Cons - It's $800. I think we have members that are willing to contribute more money than we think there are. I mean Devon said he'll pay half fight Devon? "gotta ask my wife" haha. But we should be able to come up with $800 up front for the cost.

Pros- LOCATION LOCATION LOCATION. It's secluded on the side of the park with it's own entrance. We would be connected to the park but what we do doesn't interfere with the public park. This would make it easier to get approved for vendor booths. The pavillion has it's own parking lot and entrance. This would allow (since we reserved it) us to not letthe public and/or non-participant into our area. It should be able to accommodate the numbers of car we anticipate and up to 300 people. Has volleyball court and I think basketball court over there as well. And the lake is just up the grassy hill. I think if we plan on having a big meet with lots of vendors and or participant, we need to think about having a good location to hold this at. I will let the planner decide and gauge what magnitude of a meet we are planning. If it's big, Centennial is going to be a good if not best location.

Thanks for the run through the park Khoa, that was fun

It does sound like a great option. Here's what would make it work. Your determination to keep this place open has placed you on the Administration/Finance Board for this event congratulations!!

If you can come up with a surefire way that we can raise this money within a couple of weeks, you would be the hero of this entire event.

 

I REALLY doubt that would happen...

But like you said it's a great location... you're gonna get gray hair trying to find the money for this event.

 

One thing to also consider to offer the park administration is some sort of food drive to maybe bring down the cost of the rental.

 

Here I will start it off then.....I got the firts $100.00.....done! Come on peeps top that ...puss!es

 

With $700 left, 15 people contribute roughly $47 or 20 people $35 each. I don't know if we even have 20 people willing to contribute.

 

my poor *** is gonna throw in 10 possibly 20.

 

LOOL maybe 5-7 people max!!

 

I just remebered that Sandy Point has a area you can reserve .It has it's own beach and all this may be cool.
